1. Important safety notes
1.4 Safety regulations for proper use
19. Only have repairs carried out by a qualified specialist! Repair work may only be carried out
by persons who are qualified for the relevant repairs and who are familiar with the
appropriate health and safety requirements.
20. Protect the machine from damp.
21. Constantly check the machine for damages. Replace damaged parts only with original parts
and have these replaced by a specialist. The guarantee and warranty is voided if
accessories and replacement parts are use that are not designed for the machine.
22. To avoid insufficient lighting, we recommend setting up a light source that provides a value
of at least 500 Lux at the tool's cutting edge.
23. Do not remove the generated shavings with your hand. Use the appropriate tools (hand-
held sweeper, hook, brush).
24. Tools and work pieces may never be changed when the machine is running.
25. Do not brake work pieces and bush using your hand or another object.
26. Never leave the chuck key fitted (even when not in operation).
27. Pay attention to the spread of the lathe chuck.
28. The maximum revolution range specified on the lathe chuck may not be exceeded.
29. The machine only operates when the chuck protection hood is folded over the lathe chuck.
For safety reasons, it is not possible to switch the machine on when the chuck protection
hood is up.
30. The generated shavings must be caught by the user with the help of a shaving protection
device.
31. Always keep the gear cover hood closed.
32. The gear cover hood may only be opened by a trained person with a special key and when
the grounded plug has been pulled out of the socket.
33. Turning steels must be firmly tensioned, at the correct height and as short as possible.
34. Do not measure at the rotating work piece (risk of accident, measuring tools will be
damaged).
35. When working between the tips, check the locking lever of the tailstock for firm seating.
36. Despite the existing safety clutch, you should avoid reaching into the rotating hand wheel
when the automatic feed is switched on.
37. When working with the automatic feed, always pay attention to ensure that the tool skid
does not come up against the lathe chuck or the tailstock.
38. When wood turning use a lathe centre point instead of the lathe chuck to carry the work
piece.
